I'm A Celeb's Ant and Dec poke fun at Boris Johnson's North East 'forgive me' speech

Dec Donnelly poked fun at Boris Johnson's 'forgive me' gaffe on last night's I'm a Celebrity.

The presenter referenced the Prime Minister's speech in front of business leaders at the CBI conference where he lost his place for 20 seconds before rambling about Peppa Pig.

The Mirror reports on the latest episode of I'm a Celebrity, the Geordie duo were doing a link between scenes when Dec started fumbling with his notes for the show, saying "forgive me" multiple times.

Ant said: "Well that cake went down well didn't it? And the way Richard described it - my tastebuds are joining into a harmonious chorus of joy," before Dec interjected, adding: "It was pure poetry."

"It was a symphony of sugary sensation. It was a culinary confection beyond your wildest dreams," Dec continued.

"It was a waltz through a galaxy of formidable flavours," he added, when Ant said: "Where do we get it?"

Dec exclaimed that he had it written down somewhere while fumbling with the notes for the show as he said forgive me multiple times and then added: "We got it in Poundland in Rhyl."

Viewers tuning into the latest episode were left in hysterics.

"Hahhaha Ant and Dec mocking Boris’ faux pas from today ' forgive me, forgive me’. Perfection #ImACeleb#ImACelebrity," one wrote.

Another added: "Ant and Dec so quick on Forgive me from Boris earlier #ImACeleb."

A third wrote on Twitter: " #ImACeleb dec is so funny lol err forgive me," with a fourth penning alongside a string of laughing emojis: "Dec Proper ripping into #BorisJohnson, please Forgive me. Brilliant . #ImACeleb#Forgiveme."

Another I'm A Celeb fan added: " Forgive me but that Boris Johnson take on @ImACelebrity was utterly brilliant. Hilarious, @AntAndDec. Well played. #ImACeleb#ImACelebrity."
